    3/1(1)
Right then, that is it from the game. Delhi Bulls pull off a heist against Northern Warriors and win the game by just 4 runs. However, Abu Dhabi T10 League action continues as The Chennai Braves take on the New York Strikers next at 10.00 pm IST (4.30 pm GMT). Do switch tabs and enjoy the coverage of that game. Cheers!
Dwayne Bravo, the skipper of Delhi Bulls starts by applauding Shiraz Ahmed for his last over. Says that Northern Warriors are one of the stronger opponents in the competition and it is good to get a win against them. Shares that it was good to get a fighting total on the board courtesy of Tom Banton and Tim David. Feels that Imad Wasim set the tone with the ball for them. Reckons that the wicket of Rovman Powell was the turning point. Ends by saying that they have a good coaching staff with Andy Flower.
Time for the Presentations ...
Kennar Lewis is in for a quick chat. He says that it is all about T10 cricket and they should have won the game but couldn't. Adds that they were rusty and that is what cost them the game. Ends by saying that they would need to bounce back in their next game and hope their boys do the job well.
Earlier in the game, Tom Banton got Delhi Bulls to a flying start and scored 38 off 18 deliveries. Tim David then played an amazing knock and scored 42 from 18 balls. Northern Warriors conceded 52 runs in the first 4 overs but made a good comeback later on in the game. However, Junaid Siddique conceded 22 in the 9th over and helped Delhi Bulls reach a total of 119.
Northern Warriors started off poorly and lost their both openers in a jiffy. They were 11/2 but their skipper, Rovman Powell and Usman Khan kept the scoreboard ticking. They lost their skipper in the sixth over but Usman Khan carried on and played an amazing knock but was dismissed on 47. Sherfane Rutherford played a dangerous cameo of 26 runs off 13 balls, but in the end, all went in vain with a superb final over from Shiraz Ahmed.
Unbelievable scenes here and boy-o-boy, Shiraz Ahmed is the man who won it for the Delhi Bulls from absolutely nowhere. He bagged 3 wickets in the last over and conceded just 2 runs. Richard Gleeson was the pick of the bowlers for Delhi Bulls as well as he just conceded 13 runs in his two overs and bagged a wicket. Have to mention Shiraz Ahmed amazing spell of (1-0-1-3) as well. The rest of their bowlers leaked runs and just couldn't manage to find their lengths right. Dwayne Bravo was quite expensive for his liking.They would need to work on their bowling.
